Outstanding Young Adult Scholarship
What is OYA? The outstanding Young Adult Award is a $500 scholarship given annually by the Minnesota Women of Today to recognize young adults between the ninth and twelfth grade who show excellence in leadership abilities, are involved in their local communities and possess the ability to initiate ideas and innovations for new and existing projects and programs. Women of Today chapters from around the state send nominations for the award to the OYA committee who then choose the winning nomination.
How do I enter a nomination? The nomination form can be found by clicking on the link below. There are also guidlines to follow in Outstanding Young Adult Manual. The local Byron Women of Today will take nominations from the Byron area until October 1st, 2012. A selection committee in Byron will then select one applicant from Byron to be submitted for the award. Byron Women of Today pay all costs involved with sending the nomination.
